A Musical Love Letter Across Oceans

Alongside the release of his new single, Jowee Omicil unveils a fresh episode of his PodBasH!, diving into the story behind his powerful new signature track, OkaP To MinDeLo. 

From Okap—Haiti’s historic first capital—to Mindelo, his soul’s second home in Cabo Verde, this piece is much more than a song. It is a love letter. A bridge. A heartbeat stretched across the ocean.


Mindelo is not just a city for Jowee—it is a place of deep connection, of inspiration, of kinship. By dedicating this track to Mindelo, Jowee is paying homage to a land and people who welcomed him like family and became a extension of his Haitian roots.

Infused with the unmistakable groove of Kompa, the track pulses with a rhythm of belonging. It carries the Twoubadou heartbeat of Haiti, the melodic soul of Cabo Verde, and the joyful, fearless freedom that defines Jowee’s spirit. Simply irresistible.


Part of his upcoming album sMiLes, this track embodies the album’s essence: connection, unity, and love. Jowee reminds us of the Haitian proverb, “L’union fait la force” – Unity makes strength. Through “OkaP To MinDeLo”, he unites two places that dwell in his heart, inviting us all to move with the music, to embrace our roots, and to find joy in the shared rhythm of our humanity.
